SAN ANTONIO — Two men are recovering at University Hospital after a suspect shot one in the face and possibly pistol-whipped the other Tuesday night on the South Side, according to police.

The incident occurred shortly before 9 p.m. Tuesday in the 300 block of Petaluma Boulevard, where two victims, several witnesses and the suspect were talking. An argument ensued, followed by a fight, according to a preliminary police report.

The suspect, who lives near the location, brandished a gun and shot the first victim. The second victim suffered a head injury, possibly from a gunshot or a pistol whipping, as well as a dislocated shoulder, the report said.

Emergency personnel responded and transported the two men to University Hospital for treatment.
